JACK O’CONNOR MAY be without players due to the All-Ireland senior club football final and injury, but he has still been able to pick a Kerry team filled with minor winners for Wednesday’s EirGrid Munster U21 football quarter-final against Clare.

Dr Crokes participation in Croke Park on St Patrick’s Day robs Kerry of Gavin White, Micheál Burns and Jordan Kiely while senior defender Brian Ó Beaglaoich misses out through injury.
But Kerry still have plenty experience with all but one of their starting fifteen having been part of the All-Ireland minor winning sides since 2014. That player is full-forward Matthew O’Sullivan, who missed last year’s Munster U21 final through injury after playing in the earlier rounds.
Six of last year’s team that lost to Cork in the U21 decider are selected here in Tom O’Sullivan, Jason Foley, Tom Leo O’Sullivan, Barry O’Sullivan, Brian Ó Seanachain, and Matthew Flaherty.
